Abstract:
Inuit youth face challenges in maintaining their wellbeing, stemming from continued impacts of colonisation. Recent work documented that urban centres, such as Winnipeg Canada, have large Inuit populations comprised of a high proportion of youth. However, youth lack culturally appropriate health and wellbeing services. This review aimed to scan peer-reviewed and grey literature on Inuit youth health and wellbeing programming in Canada. This review is to serve as an initial phase in the development of Inuit-centric youth programming for the Qanuinngitsiarutiksait program of research. Findings will support further work of this program of research, including the development of culturally congruent Inuit-youth centric programming in Winnipeg. We conducted an environmental scan and used an assessment criteria to assess the effectiveness of the identified programs. Results showed that identified programs had Inuit involvement in creation framing programming through Inuit knowledge and mostly informed by the culture as treatment approach. Evaluation of programs was diffcult to locate, and it was hard to discren between programming, pilots or explorative studies. Despite the growing urban population, more non-urban programming was found. Overall, research contributes to the development of effective strategies to enhance the health and wellbeing of Inuit youth living in Canada.
摘要:
因纽特人在维持他们的福祉方面面临挑战,源于殖民的持续影响。最近的工作记录了城市中心,比如加拿大温尼伯,拥有大量的因纽特人人口,其中青年比例很高。然而,青年缺乏文化上适当的健康和福利服务。这篇评论旨在扫描加拿大因纽特人青年健康和福祉计划的同行评审和灰色文献。这篇评论将作为Qanuinngitsiarutiksait研究计划的以因纽特人为中心的青年计划开发的初始阶段。研究结果将支持这项研究计划的进一步工作,包括在温尼伯开发文化上一致的因纽特人以青年为中心的节目。我们进行了环境扫描,并使用评估标准来评估已确定计划的有效性。结果表明,已确定的程序通过因纽特人的知识参与了创作框架编程,并且主要由文化作为治疗方法。对项目的评估很难找到,编程之间很难区分,飞行员或探索性研究。尽管城市人口不断增长,发现了更多的非城市节目。总的来说,研究有助于制定有效的策略,以增强居住在加拿大的因纽特人的健康和福祉。
